The Effects Of Sleep Deprivation On Flight Performance, Instrument Scanning, And Physiological Arousal In United States Air Force Pilots, Fred H. Previc, Nadia Lopez, William R. Ercoline Jan 2007

The Effects Of Sleep Deprivation On Flight Performance, Instrument Scanning, And Physiological Arousal In United States Air Force Pilots, Fred H. Previc, Nadia Lopez, William R. Ercoline

International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2007

The effects of 34 hr of continuous wakefulness on flight performance, instrument scanning, subjective fatigue and EEG activity were measured. Ten fixed-wing pilots flew a series of 10 simulator profiles, and root-mean-square error was calculated for various flight parameters. Ocular scanning patterns were obtained by means of infrared tracking. The results showed that flying errors peaked after about 24-28 hr of continuous wakefulness, in line with peaks in subjective- and EEG-measured fatigue. Instrument scanning was very consistent across pilots but was mostly unaffected by the sleep deprivation.

Analysis Of Learning Curves: Evaluation Of Assessment In Atc Training, Esther Oprins, Ernst Burggraaff, Hans Van Weerdenburg Jan 2007

Analysis Of Learning Curves: Evaluation Of Assessment In Atc Training, Esther Oprins, Ernst Burggraaff, Hans Van Weerdenburg

International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2007

This paper describes the analysis of learning curves as part of the evaluation of a competence-based assessment system designed for air traffic control (ATC) simulator and on-the-job training (OJT) at LVNL. This system should contribute to an increased output from training by making learning processes more effective and efficient. Learning curves were derived from assessment results obtained in training. Patterns and individual differences in learning should be recognized in these (recalibrated) learning curves if the assessment system is well-designed, needed for adequate feedback and interventions. We divided the trainees into three groups and we compared their learning curves with patterns …

Going Below Minimums: The Efficacy Of Display Enhanced/Synthetic Vision Fusion For Go-Around Decisions During Non-Normal Operations, Lawrence J. Prinzel Iii, Lynda J. Kramer, Randall E. Bailey

International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2007

The use of enhanced vision systems in civil aircraft is projected to increase rapidly as the Federal Aviation Administration recently changed the aircraft operating rules under Part 91, revising the flight visibility requirements for conducting approach and landing operations. Operators conducting straight-in instrument approach procedures may now operate below the published approach minimums when using an approved enhanced flight vision system that shows the required visual references on the pilot’s Head-Up Display. An experiment was conducted to evaluate the complementary use of synthetic vision systems and enhanced vision system technologies, focusing on new techniques for integration and/or fusion of synthetic …

Relationship Of Complexity Factor Ratings With Operational Errors, Elaine M. Pfleiderer Jan 2007

Relationship Of Complexity Factor Ratings With Operational Errors, Elaine M. Pfleiderer

International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2007

This study is an examination of the relationship between controller ratings of static and dynamic sector complexity factors and the occurrence of operational errors (OEs) at the Indianapolis air route traffic control center (ZID). Principal Components Analysis (PCA) of the complexity ratings produced four components that were used as predictors in a multiple regression analysis of the number of OEs in the ZID sectors. Only Component 1 (climbing and descending aircraft in the vicinity of major airports) and Component 2 (services provided to non-towered airports) contributed significantly to the total proportion of variance explained by the model (R = .78, …

Coherent Design Of Uninhabited Aerial Vehicle Operations And Control Stations, Amy R. Pritchett, Luis Nicolas Gonzalez Castro, Daniel Pierre Jacques Bruneau Jan 2007

Coherent Design Of Uninhabited Aerial Vehicle Operations And Control Stations, Amy R. Pritchett, Luis Nicolas Gonzalez Castro, Daniel Pierre Jacques Bruneau

International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2007

Designing for UAV systems presents novel challenges, both in terms of selecting and presenting adequate information for effective teleoperation, and in creating operational procedures and ground control station interfaces that are robust to a range of UAV platforms and missions. We propose that a vital design objective is establishing coherence between these three features (function, procedures, and ground control station interfaces). Specifically, principles of coherent design are applied to the design of operational procedures and ground control stations (GCS) for uninhabited aerial vehicles (UAVs). Creating a coherent set of operating procedures, automatic functions and operators requires a systematic design approach …

Extrapolation Of The Intersection Of Two Trajectories On A 2d Display: Evidence Of Biases, Charles Pompanon, Éric Raufaste

International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2007

The aim of this study1 is to understand how people can extrapolate the collision point of two static stimuli representing aircraft on a 2D display. The task was to point out with a mouse cursor where the two aircraft’ trajectories would intersect. The presented configurations varied with angle and distance between the two stimuli. First, results show an effect of the distance and the angle between the two aircraft on the accuracy of the estimation of the collision point as well as on decision times. Secondly, participants tended to produce significantly more responses within the triangle formed by the two …

Temporal Awareness In Atc: Literature Review And A Proposed Model, Esa M. Rantanen Jan 2007

Temporal Awareness In Atc: Literature Review And A Proposed Model, Esa M. Rantanen

International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2007

Air traffic control (ATC) offers a paradigmatic example of a dynamic multi-task environment, placing both considerable and unique demands on the human controllers’ cognitive faculties. In particular, the notion of temporal awareness, which is argued here to be fundamental to both controller workload management and task performance, brings together many of the most central components of human information processing system. The temporal dimension of ATC offers thus both a rich task environment for the study of temporal awareness and the associated cognitive processes as well as affords their quantitative measurement for modeling purposes. This paper makes a case for focused …

Preliminary Studies In Complex Military Iconic Symbology, D. W. Repperger, G. Thomas, J. Miller, D. Aleva, S. Fullenkamp

International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2007

Two studies are reported on human performance using military visual iconic objects that increased in complexity by augmenting the number of dimensions. The first experiment demonstrates certain perceptual human biases that appear when attempting to correctly identify the state of a standard military icon feature. The second experiment, based on the results of the first experiment, revealed the expected information overload conditions that occur which give rise to exponential laws. The results of the second experiment provide preliminary guidelines on proper synthesis of new iconic objects in terms of their information complexity as well as how they are perceived by …

Distributed Cognition At Cockpit: A Preliminary Study, Selma Leal De Oliveira Ribeiro Jan 2007

Distributed Cognition At Cockpit: A Preliminary Study, Selma Leal De Oliveira Ribeiro

International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2007

Distributed Cognition is a theoretical structure, derived of cognitive science, which considers that the human knowledge and the cognition are not confined to the individual. In contrast, it is distributed to memories, facts or knowledge on the objects, individuals and environmental tools. The insertion of automated devices in different work stations had aimed at to reduce the operator workload and to minimize human error incidence. However, such initiative brought other questions, which demands great knowledge and abilities from the operator in the cognitive field. The main objective of this article is to present a preliminary cockpit analysis from Hutchins and …

Crew Resource Management And Shared Mental Models, Rosemarie Reynolds, Elizabeth Blickensderfer Jan 2007

Crew Resource Management And Shared Mental Models, Rosemarie Reynolds, Elizabeth Blickensderfer

International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2007

An interest in cognitive skill is beginning to appear in relation to crew resource management. One aspect of cognitive skill that has been examined in a variety of team domains is the notion of overlapping or “shared” mental models among teammates. While a growing amount of evidence on the relationship between shared mental models and team performance exists, only limited research has occurred in respect to the role shared mental models have in crew resource management. The purpose of this paper is to provide researchers and practitioners an understanding of shared mental models and their role in team performance, and …

Advanced Airport Surface Operations In Atm - Implications For Training Of End-Users, Jan Joris Roessingh Ph.D., Sonja Van Der Vliet-Perreijn M.Sc., Hinnerk Eißfeldt Ph.D., Brian Hilburn Ph.D.

International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2007

To safely meet future traffic demands, several European airports (e.g. Paris CDG, London Heathrow, Amsterdam Schiphol, Frankfurt, Geneva) have recently introduced Advanced Surface Movement and Guidance Control Systems (A-SMGCS), and more airports are expected to follow suit in the coming years. A-SMGCS, with its HMI based on a visual display capable of depicting all the traffic at the airport, is more than merely a convenient addition to the outside visual view from the control room. It enables aerodrome controllers and Apron Management Service personnel (‘apron controllers’) to maintain a high rate of traffic movements, even during low visibility. At the …

Beyond Electronic Flight Bag (Efb) Approval: Improving Crew Performance, Thomas L. Seamster Ph.D., Barbara G. Kanki Ph.D.

International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2007

As operators evaluate and implement Electronic Flight Bags (EFBs), the emphasis has been on their operational approval and certification. This research provides data that demonstrate how an operator can aim beyond the limited objectives of the EFB approval process to improving crew performance. This paper reports on evaluation results that show how crews working with an EFB can not only equal, but can exceed the performance of those working with traditional paper documents.

Evaluation Of The Seev Model Of Visual Attention Allocation In Atc Applications, Angela Schriver, Esa Rantanen Jan 2007

Evaluation Of The Seev Model Of Visual Attention Allocation In Atc Applications, Angela Schriver, Esa Rantanen

International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2007

Visual attention allocation and scanning strategies of pilots have enjoyed sustained research effort for decades, resulting in many useful models and better understanding of the relationship between pilots’ eye movements and underlying cognitive mechanisms. However, much less research has been done on modeling air traffic controllers’ attentional processes and visual performance. Yet, such efforts are becoming increasingly critical in the light of changing tasks and task environments of controllers and increasing amounts of traffic under their responsibility. This paper will consider the SEEV (Salience, Effort, Expectancy, Value) model of visual attention allocation by Wickens and collaborators, which is an extension …

Effects Of Imperfect Automation Support On Air Traffic Controller (Atco) Performance, Mental Workload, And Attention Allocation: Miss Vs. False Alarm Prone Automation, Ericka Rovira, Raja Parasuraman Jan 2007

Effects Of Imperfect Automation Support On Air Traffic Controller (Atco) Performance, Mental Workload, And Attention Allocation: Miss Vs. False Alarm Prone Automation, Ericka Rovira, Raja Parasuraman

International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2007

This study investigated ATCo performance with reliable and imperfect automation support to examine whether automation benefits would accrue in a mixed equipage environment where ATCos were no longer responsible for freely maneuvering aircraft. Of particular interest was how types of automation imperfections would affect ATCo performance and attention allocation. Further, it was studied if automation imperfection would affect ATCo trust and attention allocation to freely maneuvering aircraft. With reliable automation ATCos detected conflicts better and sooner, compared to manual performance. Second, with imperfect automation primary task performance degraded significantly and ATCos felt more self-confident to perform without the automation when …

Designing Decision Support For Mission Resource Retasking, Emilie Roth, Ronald Scott, Randall Whitaker, Rom Kazmierczak, Matthew Forsythe, Gina Thomas, Mona Stilson, Jeffrey Wampler

International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2007

Command and Control (C2) operators too often need to find and mentally fuse data distributed across multiple sources to accomplish their work. We have been developing and applying work-centered design methodologies to develop advanced visualization and support tools intended to more effectively support C2 cognitive and collaborative work. This paper describes a work-centered visualization aid, called ReCaD, that we developed to support dynamic resource re-allocation during execution in a C2 airlift service. The project illustrates how workcentered design progresses from knowledge acquisition through analysis and design to development and evaluation, with particular attention focused on the cognitive requirements of and …

Controllability And Perceptual Biases Of Risks And Abilities: The Case Of An F-16 Cockpit, Shaul Shalvi, Roy Holland, Dafna Wolff, Zohar Biton, Neta Harel, Odelya Harpaz, Moran Dishi, Ilana Ritov

International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2007

This study investigated airmen’s susceptibility to unrealistic optimism biases based on the position of control in an F-16 cockpit. Forty-seven airmen completed a questionnaire measuring their “I am above average effect” in regard to their flight ability and judgment, “below average effect” regarding their risk-taking tendencies, and unrealistic optimism about the likelihood that they would be involved in an aerial accident. The results support our main hypotheses: airmen demonstrated biased perceptions on these scales. With regard to their flight ability, pilots were more susceptible to bias than navigators. Contrary to our prediction, we did not find similar results regarding invulnerability. …

Vehicle Operator Deviations: Predicting Authorized Versus Unauthorized Access On Airport Movement Area, Alfretia Scarborough, Julia Pounds, Larry Bailey Jan 2007

Vehicle Operator Deviations: Predicting Authorized Versus Unauthorized Access On Airport Movement Area, Alfretia Scarborough, Julia Pounds, Larry Bailey

International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2007

Reducing runway incursions remains one of the Federal Aviation Administration’s (FAA’s) high priority issues. Over the years, considerable effort has been spent on addressing runway incursions attributable to controller and pilot errors. However, relatively little attention has been given towards identifying the underlying human factors related to vehicle operator deviations (VODs). Vehicle operator deviations associated with unauthorized access onto the airport movement area can pose an additional threat not only to aviation safety, but also to aviation security. Unauthorized access means that the vehicle operator entered the movement area without prior coordination with air traffic control (ATC). We analyzed an …

An Ecological Approach To Support Pilot Terrain Awareness After Total Engine Failure, Floris Sjer, Clark Borst, Max Mulder, M.M. Van Paassen Jan 2007

An Ecological Approach To Support Pilot Terrain Awareness After Total Engine Failure, Floris Sjer, Clark Borst, Max Mulder, M.M. Van Paassen

International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2007

Terrain awareness enhancing avionics, such as Synthetic Vision Systems and the Enhanced Ground Proximity Warning System, have been developed to reduce the number of controlled flight into terrain accidents. The protection these systems offer, however, is far from optimal. Synthetic Vision Systems only provide pilots with perceptual data, and leave all cognition and interpretation of data to the pilot. With Enhanced Ground Proximity Warning Systems the opposite is true. Here, cognition is hidden in the system and pilots are confronted with compelling advisories and commands. This paper presents a display system, the Emergency Landing Guidance System, which visualizes the functional …

Barriers To Safety Innovation: Experiences Applying The “Safety Model Based Analysis” Approach In European Aviation, Kyla Steele, Jean Pariès Jan 2007

Barriers To Safety Innovation: Experiences Applying The “Safety Model Based Analysis” Approach In European Aviation, Kyla Steele, Jean Pariès

International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2007

Safety research during the past decade has increasingly emphasized the importance of understanding both positive and negative aspects of performance, rather than errors, risks, and accidents alone. As the aviation industry already enjoys such a low accident rate, safety managers are looking for predictive approaches in order to proactively monitor system behaviour. Expectations of the scope and complexity of models has also increased, trying to keep pace with the rapid evolution of the industry, and a systems view has now become the aspiration. A riskmanagement approach called the Safety Model Based Analysis (SaMBA) developed by Dédale attempts to meet these …

The Use Of Airspace Flow Programs To Manage Large-Scale Weather Events, Philip J. Smith, Amy L. Spencer Jan 2007

The Use Of Airspace Flow Programs To Manage Large-Scale Weather Events, Philip J. Smith, Amy L. Spencer

International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2007

Airspace Flow Programs (AFPs) represent a new type of air traffic flow management strategy that was first introduced during the summer of 2006. They are similar to ground delay programs which are used to control arrivals into an airport, but instead control “arrivals” into some region of enroute airspace. This paper describes the functioning of AFPs, and the strategies used by National Airspace System (NAS) customers, including the swapping of flights to accommodate customer priorities and routing out of an AFP.

Skill Decay On Takeoffs As A Result Of Varying Degrees Of Expectancy, Susan M. Stevens, Timpthy E. Goldsmith Jan 2007

Skill Decay On Takeoffs As A Result Of Varying Degrees Of Expectancy, Susan M. Stevens, Timpthy E. Goldsmith

International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2007

It is generally assumed that skills trained and assessed in a simulator will transfer to the line. However, there is a class of maneuvers that demand an immediate response to an unexpected event (e.g., rejected takeoffs) for which such transfer can be questioned and for which there is little or no empirical data to support a transfer assumption. Thus, we have completed a series of studies aimed at investigating the effects of expectancy on performance for unanticipated events in a laboratory situation with undergraduate college students and experienced pilots. Our participants were trained on both normal and rejected takeoffs and …

Improving The Effectiveness Of The Pilot-Controller Partnership An Application Of Crm Tools & Methods, Thomas L. Teller, Milovan S. Brenlove Jan 2007

Improving The Effectiveness Of The Pilot-Controller Partnership An Application Of Crm Tools & Methods, Thomas L. Teller, Milovan S. Brenlove

International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2007

There is substantial evidence that the consistent application of the process tools and methods of flight deck management (CRM) has yielded improvements in the performance of flight crews in error avoidance, identification, trapping and correction or mitigation in operational flying. There is also ample evidence of operational shortcomings in flight crew performance extending beyond the flight deck, particularly in interactions with the air traffic control system and controllers (ATC), contributing to or directly stimulating consequent degrading of operational performance in these critical interactions. This paper reports an effort to adapt and apply specific tools and methods derived from those of …

Collocation And Pattern Recognition Effects On System Failure Remediation, Anna Trujillo, Hayes Press Jan 2007

Collocation And Pattern Recognition Effects On System Failure Remediation, Anna Trujillo, Hayes Press

International Symposium on Aviation Psychology - 2007

Previous research found that operators prefer to have status, alerts, and controls located on the same screen. Unfortunately, that research was done with displays that were not designed specifically for collocation. In this experiment, twelve subjects evaluated two displays specifically designed for collocating system information against a baseline that consisted of dial status displays, a separate alert area, and a controls panel. These displays differed in the amount of collocation, pattern matching, and parameter movement compared to display size. During the data runs, subjects kept a randomly moving target centered on a display using a left-handed joystick and they scanned …
